Measuring Guide

Measuring for roller blinds

Width

Recess width: Measure the inside of the recess in three places: top, middle and bottom. Confirm the narrowest measurement as recess width.
Fabric width: If the blind is fitted outside a recess, you just need to measure the width you want the fabric to cover. We recommend that you add 7cm either side of the recess or window frame.
Beware: For bay windows, you need to allow for the size of the roll of fabric to ensure that the blinds do not touch at each bend. Do not hesitate to call for help.
For recess blinds: make sure you allow for tiled bottom sides of the window and specify as well if necessary the maximum fabric width.

Length

Length measurement includes the roll.
Measure from where the top of the roll will be or the full length of the recess.
